Verse I

On 1660 the Dutch would rally their allies in Luzon or Saludong including their own Pampanger allies and the Pagans and due to the Strengthening of the revolt the Dutch would strengthen their hold in Saludong or Luzon

On 1661 Maniago-Almazan-Malong and Dutch alliance along with the pagans would create an alliance with the southern sultanate of Maguindanao under the rule of Sultan Kudarat which would the Spanish to actually panic against the alliance and the Pagans would show their alliance with the Dutch and would support the Dutch in the liberation of the coastal of Saludong and the Dutch would send their allies in the south such as the Javanese as their troops.

On 1662, Koxinga would demand the Spanish to pay tribute or they would attack Manila and the Spanish would give him the tributes so that he will act to help the Spanish against them and this would cause the Spanish to act against the Dutch sympathizers and the rebels allied with Dutch as well as the Pagans.

The Spanish killed and expelled the Chinese in manila due to Koxinga’s planned attack and it would enrage him to conquer Manila which he does which would be one of the things that would make the Dutch stronger against the Spanish and the Macabebe scouts would show their real nature as Dutch allies and kick the Spanish from Macabebe.

However, whatever the Spanish will do the Spanish are lost and are also faced in maintaining their own bases in Mindanao.

Due to the support and the strength of the revolt the Spanish rule in Coasts of Saludong would go to the Dutch and the Pagans since the population already has sympathized with the Dutch except for the Iloco population who have some loyalty with the Spanish, the Dutch would completely abandon Formosa in favor of Saludong which sits in the old Malay-Ryukyu trade.

note:
I am sorry to tell you Northern Luzon has no chinese population at this point in time, however its nobility are under dutch influence at this point and some lands are under spanish occupation so in this TL koxinga is just used as a catalyst for them to liberate their lands.
